First of all, weird billing system designed to both take advantage of you and intimidate you…read more Instead of using a card you had to give them your checking account info to draw from directly, which I understand is very hard to stop. Then in order to cancel, it takes a month before they do so and you have to attend X amount of classes during that canceled month in order for them to stop charging you. That sounds very intimidating. Second of all, the students were very verbally aggressive and not anything like my previous relations with jiu jitsu. The coach was fine but constanly had to tell his students to calm down. He was a nice guy but I wish he had made a better environment for his students.

Can't lie, gyms pretty trash. I came in and told the dude I wanted to compete. The guy who signed…read moreme up, Malachi also happened to be the instructor for the beginner class who decides if you can spar even tho he said himself he's never competed. I really just signed up to spar but multiple months later that never even happened lol and then dude tells me I need to pay extra to spar lmfao. Guess guy took a disliking to me after he took my money and just wasted my time. Other female instructor with glasses honestly just sucked too, made childish comments about me. I watched her front street fights and nothing special. There was a couple good coaches but seems like the majority are just there for money cause gym went commercial for sure. Lame experience cause of petty coaches but facility is nice. Found a new gym and sparred first day and got my fix. Wouldn't recommend to anyone above the age of 18, they will for sure suck your dry financially and waste your time.

I've never trained in any discipline of martial arts, so I was pretty nervous. The atmosphere of the gym is nonjudgmental and very welcoming. The coaches have everyone's best interests at heart and do an amazing job at making sure you're learning in a good environment. I don't have any little ones, but I've heard from numerous people that their kids classes are just as top-notch as the adult ones. Although it's a small gym with only one mat, the togetherness of the group makes it work. I plan to train with these fine people for many years to come. If you have any inkling of trying martial arts out, go here.

My first school ended not being a good experience. My second was so so and not a place I could excel with my experience. I was really concerned if i would find the right place for me. Luckily, my friend's neighbor recommended Alliance in Eagle. He explained to me the high level instruction and had nothing but positive things to say. So I dropped in at their new location which was very impressive. Spoke with the owner (coral belt) Gigi, who was such a nice person and invited me to try out a class. Being 51 and a purple belt in a new school can be very intimidating. Plus I was coming back from a long layoff due to recovery from two work related surgeries.The students at Alliance were friendly, very respectful, and understanding of my circumstances. I could not ask for anything more. I highly recommend Alliance! The staff there are there to get you to the level of jujitsu you want to be.

I'm still pretty new...a few months in...but every class I've gone to has been super fun and interesting. There are no issues with ego here like you might encounter in other martial art communities. Everyone is patient and kind and the discussions range from philosophical to lighthearted. It's a safe place to learn and grow and you're encouraged to ask questions. I always learn something new and I always want to come back to learn and try more new things. In addition, you can hang out outside of class because we're all that close. I've met individuals from out of state and the overall experience is so welcoming and enthusiastic. Everyone wants to learn and grow. If you are looking for a dojo that will teach you not only how but also why, you will not be disappointed. The lessons on how to move in the dojo can be applied in daily life and the community is a testament to that.
